For students living on campus (residence halls or apartments), DSS approves accommodations related to campus housing. This includes housing accommodations, dining accommodations, and approving ESAs for on-campus living and our office will collaborate with Housing, Dining, and Residence Life on implementing accommodations.
Students living in campus housing are able to request housing accommodations at any time. However, as housing options are limited, we strongly encourage all students to request accommodations as early as possible, particularly for newly admitted students who are required by the University of Wyoming to reside in the UW residence halls during their first academic year on campus.
Due to limited availability, housing accommodations are available on a first come, first serve basis. To ensure needs are accommodated, requests for the Fall semester should be placed before the end of May and those for the Spring semester should be placed before December 15th. Housing accommodation requests made after these dates, even if approved, may not be implemented due to availability.
To Request a Housing Accommodation
Students must submit an application along with documentation to support their request. Documentation must indicate the diagnoses, discuss how this will negatively impact their ability to gain the learning objectives of on campus housing and why the requested accommodation is the only means by which participation in housing can occur.
Dining accommodations could include working with Washakie staff and nutritionists due to disabilities involving food restrictions, and more.
